the notice in front of me -- Jerry will testify or can testify about the reasons that he is aware of for the cessation of the production of PCBs in Anniston.
MR. WRIGHT: Right. 1 think we've already talked about that.
MR. COX: He's the person who is designated for purposes of discussing the investigation of Snow Creek, by the Attorney General in 1985. It was incorrectly designated in the notice as 1990.
And 1 think the remainder had to do with Jerry's role as sort of the chief environmental person from approximately 1974 or so through the end of the 1980s timeframe, and whatever other categories that would involve, that information, he would be the person knowledgeable about that.
MR. WRIGHT: Okay. Thank you. Let's start. (WHEREUPON, discussion was held off the record.) (WHEREUPON, Plaintiffs Exhibits 11, 12 & 13 were marked for identification.)

8 back. Let me hand you what we've marked as Exhibit
9 we would just say that that designation still

11
MR. WRIGHT: Yeah, remind me what
11 DSN001 had been tested for PCBs and dioxins in, 1
12 categories you designated him in.
12 think you said, 1981 and 1984.
13
MR. COX: 1 was afraid you were

14 going to do that to me.
14 Q And Mr. Cox was kind enough to dig up
15
MR. WRIGHT: 1 was just going to
15 what we've marked as Exhibit Number 13. What is

14 BY MR. WRIGHT:
14
15 Q It turns out that this Exhibit Number 13
15
16 does not have data for 001, correct? 1 didn't see
16
17 it. Maybe you can correct me.
17
18 A Yes, it appears that this one was well
18
19 water sampling.
19
20 Q Okay. Let's look at the screening
20
21 levels, though. What is the screening level for
21
22 the aroclor?
22
23 MR. COX: It's further in.
23
Page 11
Q Well, which one do you -A And so, unless 1 see something that indicates differently, that's --1 would -- my conclusion would be that for quantification, GC/EC is what typically was used. Q Well, why does it say either? A 1 cannot answer that. Q Now, what's bigger, a microgram or a nanogram? A What is bigger? Q Yes. A A microgram. Q Are you sure that it's parts per billion and not parts per million? Because a nanogram per liter, 1 think is parts per billion, isn't it? A No. A microgram per milliliter is a part per million. A microgram per liter is a part per billion. Q Okay. Well, we'll come back to this when we get the one for the right discharge point. A This shows in this summary the screening level of one microgram per liter, on page three. Q What page are you looking at?
Page 10
Page 12
1
THE WITNESS: Two screening levels
1 A Page three.
2 are listed here, one for the GC/MS screen, which is 2 Q Okay. And they're saying they did a
3 ten micrograms per liter, and one for the
3 GC/MS analysis, you're right.
4 GC electron capture screen, which is one microgram 4
A GC/EC.
5 per liter.
5 Q Well, they say GC/MS.
6 BY MR. WRIGHT:
6 A Where are you referring to?
7 Q And first, can you translate that to
7 Q Up here in the title it says, priority
8 parts per million or parts per billion?
8 pollutant screening levels, GC/MS --
9 A Let me borrow a piece of paper.
9 A Okay.
10 Microgram per liter is parts per billion.
10 Q -- analysis of organics in industrial
11 Q Parts per billion?
11 effluence.
12 A Uh-huh.
12 A Okay. It also lists in the screening
13 Q Okay. Do you know whether -- does it
13 level of one microgram per liter for pesticides and
14 say in here whether they use the ten parts per
14 aroclor.
15 billion or the one part per billion? Let me give
15 Q Yeah, and I'm a little bit puzzled,
16 you a hint; on page three, in the summary, it says,
16 because they say, see table three. And then table
17 they were investigated through either GC/MS or
17 three is what we just looked at. It has both
18 GC/EC screening analysis. It sounds to me like
18 levels, it has the ten and the one.
19 they're not going to tell us whether they used the
19 A And it - and 1 refer back to the
20 GC/MS or GC/EC on the aroclor.
20 statement 1 made earlier, that generally, on
21 A Normally, GC/MS was used for
21 pesticides and aroclor, for quantification, GC/EC
22 identification. GC/EC was used for quantification,
22 was most commonly used because of its lower
23 because it had a lower level of detection.

Q Page three. This is where -- what is
7 photographs. So, what does 1-A show?
7 page three showing us?
8 A This is apparently one of the sewer
8 A A clean-out of one of the limestone
9 boxes.
9 beds.
10 Q You said sewer boxes?
10 Q Is this the limestone bed that fronts on
11 A Well, yes, uh-huh.
11 Clydesdale?
12 Q Basically, an opening so that you can 12 A Yes.
13 observe the sewer?
13 Q What was the purpose for cleaning it out
14 A Yes, it's basically a connection of
14 in June of'77?
15 sewers with an opening so that you can observe. 15
A Because it had basically become plugged
16 Q And what can you observe in 1-A?
16 with storm sediments, sediments from storm water.
17 A Well, 1 would have to look, go ahead and 17 Q What happened to the material that you
18 look at 1-B and C to try to tie all of those
18 dug out of it?
19 together, 1 don't --
19 A It was transported to the landfill and
20 Q Looking at all of those, what does it
20 placed in the landfill cell.
21 show you?
21 Q Do you know which cell it was placed in?
22 A This is relating to a, if 1 remember
22 A 1 don't remember, at this time.
23 correctly, a spill of HB40 that released some few 23 Q Page four?
Page 14
Page 16
1 gallons of HB40 or Therminol 66, whichever name you 1
A A is another photograph of the--the
2 want to call it, into the storm sewer. And this is
2 previous series that we looked at.
3 basically showing the capture of that.
3 Q By the way, were the sediments tested
4 Q Showing the capture? Where was it
4 for PCBs?
5 captured?
5 A At this particular event, 1 don't know.
6 A It was captured in the sewer box and
6 Photograph B is, 1 am guessing, a picture prior to
7 basically, it was -- anyplace that it was captured
7 the clean-out.
8 there, it was then sucked up with a vacuum truck
8 Q Of the limestone bed?
9 out of that point.
9 A Yes, sir.
10 Q Is HB40 heavier than water?
10 Q Page five, 1 assume this is, again, the
11 A Very slightly.
11 limestone pit?
12 Q On page two, what does page two show?
12 A Yes, sir.
13 And A looks like another sewer photo; is that
13 Q It says, mid-baffle. What is a
14 right?
14 mid-baffle?
15 A And that's basically a continuation of
15 A That's one bed, maybe both, I'm not
16 that same event that 1 referred to. And then these
16 sure, don't remember, but was constructed in
17 others appear to be photographs that were taken at 17 baffles at different points, basically, to divide,
18 the dock where the -- where the spill occurred.
18 help afford -- provide structural support for
19 Q Was this equipment once used to transfer 19 limestone.
20 PCBs?
20 Q If we look at A, there's some buildings
21 A No.
21 in the background. You can see two buildings, one
22 Q This was never used to transfer PCBs?
22 three-story building, it looks like, and then one
23 A No, not to my knowledge.
23 kind of long, metal building. What's the long,
Brown, Jerry (Anniston Monsanto Plant employee) in OWENS (2)
Pages 13-16
HARTOLDMON0034984
Page 17
1 metal building?
1
2 A It's a warehouse.
2
3 Q Is that the warehouse where PCBs used to 3
4 be stored and drummed?
4
5 A For a short period of time. That
5
6 building was built just before the--
6
7 Q Was that part of the expansion when the
7
8 PCBs were shut down?
8
9 MR. COX: Object to the form.
9
10 BY MR. WRIGHT:
10
11 Q You can answer.
11
12 A I don't remember this being a part of an
12
13 expansion, but it was part of a new warehouse
13
14 facility that was built right about the time that
14
15 the aroclor facility was shut down.
15
16 Q It was built adjacent to the aroclor,
16
17 the old aroclor facility, correct?
17
18 A No. The old aroclor facility would have
18
19 been south and west of this structure.
19
20 (WHEREUPON, there was a brief recess.)

MR. WRIGHT: Let's go back on the

up some of the writing. The writing said north pit or N pit. I assume that means north pit; is that right?
A Yes. Q North pit showing mid-baffle and looking upstream to inlet end. The inlet that they're referring to is where the sewer discharges into th^ limestone pit, correct? A Yes, sir. Q And again, that's the same sewer that used to run -- well, I say it's the same sewer - the sewer that ran from the aroclor building, this is the inlet or the outlet, whatever you call it, for that sewer, correct? A There was several sewers that joined Q Right. A -- and the inlet at the pit at this point. Q One of them being the aroclor sewers? A Yes. Q Then photo B, it says north pit from inlet towards discharge. So, this is looking towards Clydesdale, correct?
Page 18
Page 20
1 Q While we were off I asked you to draw a
1 A Yes, sir.
2 little bird's eye sketch of the two buildings that
2 Q Note black parenthesis dark brown close
3 we see in the background of photo 5-A. Andyou did 3 parenthesis organic liquid on surface of mud in
4 that; is that correct?
4 grit chamber. What does that mean?
5 A Yes.
5 A That's another photograph of the
6 Q And I'm going to number these buildings.
6 material I referred to earlier, that had been
7 Well, actually, I'll label them what y'all used to
7 spilled and was being cleaned up.
8 call them. What did you used to call that
8 Q Is that what it would look like when the
9 building.
9 aroclor would spill?
10 A Building twenty-eight.
10 MR. COX: Object to the form.
11 Q Building twenty-eight. The one to the
11 BY MR. WRIGHT:
12 right of the aroclor building?
12 Q You can answer.
13 A That's correct.
13 A I have no idea. I've never seen aroclor
14 Q And then the long building south of
14 spill.
15 building twenty-eight or that--
15 Q You don't remember the fifteen hundred
16 MR. COX: That's south. That's 16 gallon spill in I believe it was '69?
17 north.
17 A No, I do not.
18 THE WITNESS: No, it's north.
18 Q Then C, photo C says, north pit looks
19 BY MR. WRIGHT:
19 southeast at grit baffle, note black organic
20 Q The building north of building
20 material, liquid on mud behind baffle before
21 twenty-eight?
21 cleaning, correct?
22 A Is called the MIC Warehouse.
22 A Yes.
23 Q Now, in the sketch, we kind of covered
23 Q Was that material ever tested for PCBs?

7 Mars Hill Church.
8 Q Had this limestone pit been replaced
8 Q How far east?
9 since the end of the aroclor production?
9 A Well, it's was where the -- the
10 A Yes.
10 catchment basins are now located.
11 Q When was it replaced?
11 Q So, it's just down the stream? I mean,
12 A As I remember, in the '72, '73 time
12 downhill from the landfill?
13 frame.
13 A Well, it, itself, was a hill. The flow
14 Q How was it replaced?
14 was not that direction. This was basically a large
15 A In a manner very similar to that
15 mound at the time. It was basically pure clay.
16 illustrated in the photographs.
16 Q Well -
17 Q The material was dug out, put in trucks 17 A That's the clay that was used for
18 I assume?
18 operation, both lining and cover in the landfill
19 A Yes.
19 operation.
20 Q Taken to the landfill?
20 Q And it was never tested for PCBs?
21 A Yes.
21 A No.
22 Q And then, what was placed in the pit, 22 Q 6-D, what does that show?
23 just a bunch of limestone?
23 A I don't know. I do not recognize that.
Page 22
Page 24
1 A Well, it was lined with clay.
1 Q Is that sewer pipe?
2 Q Okay.
2 A It's some pipe of some type, and it
3 A Compacted, then filled with limestone. 3 looks like it's some that has been underground that
4 Q Was there just one clean-out between the 4 has been -- been removed.
5 end of the aroclor and this clean-out in '77?
5 Q Both of these pipes have large crack in
6 A As I recollect.
6 them, correct?
7 Q Now, when were these pits finally taken 7 A That's what it appears.
8 out altogether?
8 Q On page seven, again, we have a little
9 A One was removed probably in the late - 9 bit better view of the two buildings in the
10 in the mid to late--well, late'70s, and the
10 limestone pit. That's in photo A. In photo B, we
11 other in the early '80s. It's --1 don't remember 11 see the end of the warehouse and a bunch of drums.
12 specifically, but that's my best recollection. I
12 What are those drums?
13 do remember they were done one at a time.
13
MR. COX: You talking about over
14 Q How were they taken out? I mean, what 14 here?
15 happened?
15 MR. WRIGHT: Yeah.
16 A The material was physically removed as 16

5 Q And remind me, what went on in building
6 Q How did the --1 think I remember

7 somebody saying that the solids were flaked and 7
A Building twenty-eight, over the course
8 sacked; is that right?
8 of the years, was used for quite a number of
9 A Flaked and put into fiber drums, as I
9 things. When I interviewed at the plant, my first
10 remember.
10 trip was actually caught before the administration
11 Q How else did the aroclor leave the
11 building that's known today was built and all the
12 plant? Is that it?
12 administration offices were in building
13 A Tank trucks.
13 twenty-eight, including the plant manager's office.
14 Q Any other ways?
14 There was also a conference room in that building.
15 A No.
15 The laboratory facility was located in that
16 Q If we go back to our little drawing, in
16 building. The storage facility was located in that
17 relation to these three buildings, where would the 17 building. The plant --
18 railroad tank cars have been loaded?
18 Q Did the laboratory -
19 A Uh-
19 A The plant dispensary was also located in
20
MR. COX: You mean loaded with
20 that building.
21 liquid aroclor?
21 Q Did all the functions, except the
22 MR. WRIGHT: Yes, sir.
22 administrative functions, remain until the building

1 A The laboratory moved to another building
2 BY MR. WRIGHT:
2 in -- well, that was -- that was the primary QAQC
3 Q You're pointing to the -
3 laboratory. There was another building, smaller
4 A There was a rail, a rail line that came
4 building, that had the small R&D labs for R & D
5 down, and then a spur that came around, like so.
5 purposes, in addition to some drafting offices.
6 That's --1 was not directly involved with that,
6 And when aroclor closed, the laboratory
7 but that's -- that's how I remember. I think
7 was consolidated into this -- a smaller building
8 that's -- that area is shown a little bit better in
8 that had previously been R&D and drafting area.
9 some of these other pictures.
9 The building twenty-eight was continued to be used
10 Q Okay. We'll look at that in a minute
10 as maintenance offices, storeroom, dispensary,
11 then. But you think the actual loading was done - 11 conference room.
12 is this north or south?
12 Q Okay. Page eight is more pictures of
13 MR. COX: That's south.
13 the pit clean-out, correct?
14 BY MR. WRIGHT:
14 A Yes.
15 Q -- just to the south of the aroclor
15 Q So is page nine?
16 building?
16 A Yes.
17 A South and west.
17 Q And then page ten?
18 Q Okay. And then the tank trucks, where
18 A Page ten, is the -- shows the lining
19 would they have been loaded?
19 with clay.
20 A In the same locations.
20 Q Is this your handwriting?
21 Q And then the flaked solid aroclor, where
21 A No, sir.
22 would they have been drummed?
22 Q Do you know whose it is?
23 A As I recollect, that flakerwas actually

2
3 A Yes, sir.
3
4 Q Isn't it?
4
5 A Yes.
5
6 Q Was that corrosive?
6
7 A No, it was -- when that process was
7
8 started up, there was some pit corrosion that
8
9 occurred in the piping and it -- it occurred very
9
10 shortly after the processor was started up, then it
10
11 was immediately shut down and investigated and it 11
12 had to do with trace levels of sulfur in the--in
12
13 the stream, interacting with the metallic alloy
13
14 composition, so the metal alloy had to be changed 14
15 and the sulfur level lowered.
15
16 Q Were the PCBs corrosive, the aroclor?
16
17 A Oh, no.
17
18 Q Okay. Page twenty-five, what does that
18
19 appear to show?
19
20 A Well, that shows the arrival of the
20
21 poly-phenyls furnace that was--poly-phenyls
21
22 reactor that was installed in'61, that actually I
22
23 was referring to when I was talking about piping.

A I don't --1 don't understand open to the air. I mean --
Q Well, I mean, it's got - A Are you asking if it is a totally enclosed building? Q I guess that's what I'm asking. A No, it wasn't totally enclosed. Q We can see these openings in the building on all three levels, it looks like. Did those generally remain open? A Yes. Structures of this type were never intended to be closed. They were - basically, enough building was provided for weatherproofing and that's all. Q All right. Photo B, do you know what that shows? A That appears to be an air dryer and an instruments air line. Q I'm sorry? A An air dryer and an instrument - instrument airline. Q Explain that, if you would. What do you need an air dryer for?

3 air, as you're well aware, air contains a certain

20 points, prior to the time MPDES permit was issued.
21 A This appears to be kind of a top shot of
21 Q Well, Number 13 that we looked at just
22 a compressor. 1 can see the--the guards. Ifl

8 Q Let's go back on the record. All right,
8
9 Mr. Brown once again, we're going to start the
9
10 session with a document that may or may not be -- 10
11 MR. COX: Is that Exhibit 14?
11
12 MR. WRIGHT: Yes, Exhibit 14.
12
13 BY MR. WRIGHT:
13
14 Q Over the lunch break, Mr. Cox went back 14
15 to the computer and pulled another document that is 15
16 one of the screening-type documents. And it states 16
17 it's screening a water sample. But 1 couldn't find
17
18 any description in there on where the water sample 18
19 came from.
19
20 A (Witness points.) Sample IDAL0001201.
20
21 Q All right.
21
22 A Which was the MPDES permit discharge
22
23 number. That -- that is the MPDES permit.

still be there. BY MR. WRIGHT: Q Yeah, Number 13 shows DSN5 and 6,
discharge 005 and discharge 006, in April of 1981. And this 14 is from January of '81. So, how could the 5 and 6 have been eliminated before this MPDES that you say is shown us in Exhibit Number 14?
A Okay. The best way 1 know how to answer that is to kind of back up and describe a little bit about the history.
Q Okay. A When the permitting process was started in the mid '70s, thereabouts, prior to that time, it was common for discharge water, whether it -and I'm talking non-contact kind of process water, to be discharged in the most convenient direction from a plant, if 1 will.
Okay, as part of the MPDES permitting process, those discharges were all combined or eliminated as a discharge point from operating facilities. Okay. 5 and 6 were basically some underground pipes that dated back many, many years. And as part of this investigation, source of water

1 that might be discharged from those was
1 A Okay, this is a sampler that basically
2 investigated and found to be spring water, ground
2 samples continuously, around the clock and puts
3 water. As part of the screening of those to ensure
3 that sample into a large jug so that a twenty-four
4 that nothing was leaving from those points, that -
4 hour composite sample is sampled for a full
5 you know, there was a --1 guess a series of
5 twenty-four hours -- put in there so that when you
6 testing screen work done on those and everything
6 take a sample out of that jug, that is a composite
7 else, and this being a part of it.
7 of that twenty-four hour sampling that was done.
8 Q Number 13 you're talking about?
8 Q So, it's taking a little bit of water
9 MR. COX: Yes, Exhibit 13.
9 every so often?
10 THE WITNESS: Uh-huh. But all 10 A Continuously, continuously, over the
11 non-contact water and boiler blow down water -
11 twenty-four hour period.
12
THE COURT REPORTER: Boiler-
12 Q Just drips in there or something?
13 THE WITNESS: Boiler.

THE WITNESS: Was discharged at

17 point 001, which when the permit was issued, was
17 conceptually. You got a jug -

21 discharge permit. That was separate from the MPDES 21
A Uh-huh.
22 direct discharge permit.
22 Q Is water flowing out of the jug
23 BY MR. WRIGHT:
23 continuously?
Page 46
1 Q Going back to Exhibit Number 14, do you
1
2 know what the flow rate was when this sample was
2
3 taken?
3
4 A Not unless it's documented back --1
4
5 don't know - if it's doc- -
5
6 Q Did you take that sample?
6
7 A 1 probably did not, because it was not a
7
8 part of my job. They had a sampling technician who 8
9 was responsible for the twenty-four hour composite
9
10 samplers that were operated. Flow rate and -- was 10
11 recorded on a daily basis. Samples were taken as a 11
12 twenty-four hour composite sampler and there was a 12
13 technician who was responsible for doing that -
13
14 that daily sampling. And I'm assuming that he took 14
15 that sample at that point in time.
15
16 Q When you say there was a twenty-four
16
17 hour composite sampler, would you explain that?
17
18 A Do you know what 1 mean when 1 say
18
19 composite sampler or do 1 need to explain that?
19
20 Q You need to explain that.
20
21 A There is a -
21
22 Q 1 mean, I've got an assumption, but 1
22
23 don't want to --
23
Page 48
A No, no, no, no, no. It's flowing in at a rate so that it will not be filled up over a twenty-four hour period. We're talking about a large jug and a slow sampling rate continuously.
Q Do they empty the jug A Yes. Q -- after they take the sample? A As the sample is taken, the jug is emptied. Then that starts the next twenty-four hour composite sample. Q Okay. A And this was done on a daily basis, everyday. Q But PCBs were not checked routinely, correct?
MR. COX: Object to the form. BY MR. WRIGHT: Q You can answer. A They were not checked on a daily basis, that's correct. Q In fact, 1 thought we decided in our last session that between '74 and '88, there were only approximately two PCB analysis done on the

7 BY MR. WRIGHT:
7
8 Q Okay. And there's two, 1 guess.
8
9 Assuming that 14 is DSN001, that's one in January
9
10 of '81 and then is this -- what's the next one?
10
11 A This is July of'83.
11
12 Q Now, this one does designate it at 0001,
12
13 the July of '83, which is Exhibit Number 15 and
13
14 then what's Number 16?
14
15 A This was waste water from the waste
15
16 treatment and biological sludge for dioxins.
16
17 Q Okay. So, aside from 15 and 16, are you
17
18 aware of any other testing for PCBs in the
18
19 discharge from the plant between 1974 and 1988?
19
20 A No.
20
21 Q And do you know that the sample that is
21
22 reflected in Exhibit Number 14, do you know
22
23 specifically how that sample was collected?
23
Page 51
there could have been. COD and PH being the most important.
BY MR. WRIGHT: Q For either one of these samples, either the one shown in 14 or the one shown in 15, do you know whether there had been any rain before these samples were taken? A No, 1 do not remember. Q Was the storm water run-off ever sampled? A As a part of that sample, but not separately from it. Storm water was included in this discharge point, too. Q Well, if there was storm water - 1 mean, if it hadn't rained for several days before this sample was taken, there wouldn't be any storm water in the sample, correct? A That's correct. Q And what I'm asking you is: Specifically, was storm water that was known to be storm water run-off from the plant ever checked? A Not separately from the twenty-four hour composite sampler that was run every -- daily every

5 Q Let me just look at this real quickly.
6 other parameters as specified by permit were run

7 daily or as specified by the permit.
7 that document is where the PCBs are set out and it
8 Q Right, that's the dissolved solids and
8 shows that the screening level is ten UG, that's
9 stuff like that?
9 micrograms, 1 assume?
10 A Well, that was not a part of that--
10 A That's correct.
11 dissolved solids weren't a part of that permit.
11 Q Per square liter?
12 Q What were the parameters that were run
12 A Per liter.
13 daily, just generally?
13 Q Per liter.
14 A In 1981, you're talking COD--
14 MR. COX: That's an asterisk.
15 Q What is COD?
15 MR. WRIGHT: Okay, I'm reading it
16 A Chemical oxygen demand. COD would have 16 upside down.
17 been run on probably a weekly basis. PH on a daily 17

19 THE COURT REPORTER: Phosphates, 19 the blanks?
20 I'm sorry.
20 MR. COX: Object to the form.

THE WITNESS: 1 started to say

3 Q As Exhibit Number 17 we've marked a set
3 that says, discharge permits and it says, MPDES and
4 of photographs that were extracted from the bunch
4 then it has the number that we talked about
5 of photographs you brought to the first deposition.

19 involved in that part of it. 1 don't know that.
20 Q You didn't see the study that showed

1 Q And when did Mr. Kaley come in?
2 find out about these PCBs that you knew and your
2 A Well, prior to him, John Craddock and --
3 company knew was in the environment, was staying in 3 but 1 mean, this is basically an ongoing thing over
4 the environment, was constantly exposing women and 4 the years. He's made many, many, many trips to the
5 children and old folks and sick people downstream
5 plant.
6 and just across the fence from the Monsanto plant? 6
Q Who has, Bob Kaley?
7 MR. COX: Object to the form.
7 A John Craddock and then followed by
8
THE WITNESS: 1 lost the question.
8 Dr. Kaley.
9 BY MR. WRIGHT:
9 Q Specifically, I'm talking about with
10 Q The question is: Didn't you feel an
10 regard to PCBs, though.
11 obligation to find out everything you could find
11 A And they were specific to PCBs. 1 mean,
12 out from the most valid sources possible --
12 that was their -- any time they came to the plant,
13 A And we had a number --
13 it was regarding PCBs.
14 MR. COX: Same objection.
14 Q Well, let's talk about that. Who is
15
THE WITNESS: -- of presentations
15 John Craddock? That's a name I'm not familiar
16 in our plant, both to me and our workers, from our
16 with.
17 representatives who follow this full-time. 1 had a
17 A He was -- he was basically the
18 career besides PCBs. And these presentations
18 coordinator of any PCB technology or dealings or
19 involved people who were paid by Monsanto. 1 mean, 19 regulations or-- prior to Bob Kaley.
20 Dr. Bob Kaley and --
20 Q He was out of St. Louis, 1 assume?
21 BY MR. WRIGHT:
21 A Yes.
22 Q I'm sorry, you said who weren't paid by
22
MR. WRIGHT: Buddy, is he still

Page 84
1 A Who were.
1 MR. COX: He's not employed.
2 MR. COX: Who were.
2 THE WITNESS: He retired before Bob
3
THE WITNESS: 1 mean, yeah, he came
3 came --
4 to our facility and gave presentations on the

MR. COX: He retired. I'm not sure
5 state-of-the-knowledge on PCBs, as did
5 if he's still alive or not, Larry, 1 just can't
6 Dr. Renate Kimbrough.
6 remember.
7 BY MR. WRIGHT:
7 MR. WRIGHT: Okay.
8 Q Dr. Kimbrough came -- I'm sorry, go
8 BY MR. WRIGHT:
9 ahead and finish your answer and I'll ask you a
9 Q What did he tell you about PCBs?
10 follow-up question.
10 A Nothing more than what I've already told
11 A And, you know, 1 didn't ask her if she
11 you. 1 mean, basically--
12 was paid by Monsanto, but I'm sure her trip to the 12 Q That they weren't hazardous?
13 plant was paid by Monsanto.
13 A Basically, this was an ongoing tracking
14 Q So, Dr. Kimbrough actually came to the
14 of regulations and -- you know, PCBs, during that
15 Anniston plant and gave a speech to Monsanto

3 Monsanto decided that it was going to be PCB free? 3 done about them, correct?
4 A Well, 1 think it started in the '70s
4 MR. COX: Object to the form.
5 when we started phasing out any PCB article, you
5
THE WITNESS: Monsanto knew they
6 know, transformer, capacitor.
6 were stable in the environment and the position was
7 Q And the reason Monsanto wanted to become 7 that nothing would be continued to be manufactured
8 PCB free is because PCBs were a potential hazard to 8 that was stable in the environment.
9 humans or animals, correct?
9 BY MR. WRIGHT:
10 MR. COX: Object to the form.
10 Q And Monsanto felt no responsibility to
11
THE WITNESS: The reason to become
11 identify the people that were being exposed to its
12 PCB free was the stability, the negative parts of
12 PCBs, to identify the specific locations of its
13 aroclors had been determined, its stability in the
13 PCBs that it had discharged and that were still
14 environment. And as one could phase out these
14 present in the environment or to communicate the
15 devices and basically get rid of them, you moved to 15 potential hazard to those people who were being
16 the next state-of-technology.
16 exposed or to somehow eliminate the exposure?
17 BY MR. WRIGHT:
17 Monsanto felt no responsibility to do any of those
18 Q But the reason you were phasing them out 18 things?
19 and the reason Monsanto quit making PCBs and the 19
MR. COX: Object to the form.
20 reason the government banned them is because of a 20
THE WITNESS: Yes, it did.
21 concern about hazards to human and animal health? 21 Monsanto communicated to every customer, to every
22 MR. COX: Object to the form.
22 worker, that purchased or used PCBs, they were

7 present in their neighborhood?
8 Q Well, part of the hazard is their
8 MR. COX: Object to the form.
9 stability in the environment?
9 THE WITNESS: Monsanto communicated
10 A That was the hazard that caused them to
10 to every person that used aroclor. Monsanto did
11 be phased out.
11 not know the need to communicate to everybody that
12 Q And the problem with them being stable
12 may have lived along a stream that contained a few
13 in the environment is they present a long-term
13 parts per million PCBs.
14 threat to the health of humans and animals because 14
BY MR. WRIGHT:
15 they are present and going to stay present in the
15 Q Well, the numbers that we just looked at
16 environment unless you get rid of them, correct?
16 were not a few parts per million, they were eleven
17 MR. COX: Object to the form.
17 hundred and twelve hundred parts per million in
18 THE WITNESS: Yes.
18 that stream, correct?
19 BY MR. WRIGHT:
19 A At certain points. At one point.
20 Q And so Monsanto knew that they were a
20 Q Well, and at another point, it was seven
21 potential human and/or animal health hazard and
21 hundred and something?
22 that they were present in the environment outside 22 A Very shortly -- short distance from
23 the Anniston plant and they were going to stay
23 that. And that's - that was removed from the

1 stream.
1 sampling there, I'm not that close to it. But 1
2 Q But Monsanto could have discovered
2 can assure you that in 1985, when we did that
3 twenty years ago or twenty-five years ago the -
3 sampling that we talked about earlier, that was the
4 MR. WRIGHT: Is it two hundred
4 locations were agreed on by us, Attorney General,
5 thousand parts per million, Buddy, behind Mars Hill
5 AWI -- or ADEM, at that time, and EPA. We didn't
6 or twenty thousand?
6 have the faintest idea that if we had sampled in
7 MR. COX: Two hundred.
7 that direction, we could have found PCBs.
8 BY MR. WRIGHT:
8 BY MR. WRIGHT:
9 Q -- the two hundred parts per million,
9 Q Sir, Monsanto knew that PCBs were being
10 behind the Mars Hill Baptist Church, twenty or
10 washed out of the landfill and had been washed out
11 twenty-five years ago, had they looked, correct?
11 of the landfill for thirty-five years before 1972
12 MR. COX: Object to the form.
12 and Monsanto knew that those PCBs had migrated and
13
THE WITNESS: Nobody had absolutely
13 were still there in 1972?
14 any knowledge or any reason to go looking at that
14
MR. COX: Object to the form. You
15 point in time that I'm aware of.
15 were through, weren't you?
16 BY MR. WRIGHT:
16 MR. WRIGHT: Yeah.
17 Q Well, what did Monsanto learn in 1995
17
THE WITNESS: You know, you use the
18 that was new knowledge that caused it to go looking 18 word "Monsanto" like it's a person. You're talking
19 and find the PCBs everywhere that it found them,
19 about a lot of people.
20 after 1995? What new knowledge did Monsanto have 20
And to my knowledge - you say
21 that it didn't have in 1972?
21 thirty-five years -- to my knowledge, that area was
22 MR. COX: Object to the form.
22 not used anywhere near thirty-five years. But 1
23
THE WITNESS: Well, basically there
23 can assure you, as honestly as 1 know how, in spite
Page 90
Page 92
1 was a lot of new knowledge but, to answer that
1 of what you say looking backwards, that in 1985,
2 question, you've got to get somebody involved in
2 when we sat down there and as honestly and
3 1995. 1 was not involved.
3 sincerely as we could possibly know how, decided
4 BY MR. WRIGHT:
4 where to sample, that never entered anybody's mind
5 Q Well, you were there. 1 mean, you were
5 as a point that we needed to sample.
6 still employed at the Anniston plant, correct, and
6
Now, did somebody some years
7 living in Anniston?
7 previous to that have some knowledge that we were
8 A I'm -
8 not aware of, that's a possibility, but 1 don't
9 Q Or living in Heflin?
9 know who they were and they weren't available to
10 A 1 had an office there, but 1 was
10 us, at the time. All 1 can tell you is that in
11 basically working wherever.
11 1985, there was no attempt to not sample any place
12 Q Well, what's the best knowledge that you
12 where we felt we should sample.
13 have about what was new to Monsanto in 1995 that it 13
BY MR. WRIGHT:
14 did not have in 1972?
14 Q Well, let me ask you this: In all
15 MR. COX: Object to the form.
15 honesty and in all fairness, if Monsanto -- and by
16
THE WITNESS: One thing was the --
16 Monsanto, 1 mean the decision makers at Monsanto --
17 let me just address that hot spot per se. Nobody
17 if Monsanto had known or had a reason to know that
18 had the faintest idea that that was there. Nobody
18 PCBs were migrating off of that landfill in 1970 or
19 had the -- any basis for going to that spot in the
19 '71 and had been for a long time prior to that,
20 woods and taking a sample. Till this day, nobody
20 then should Monsanto have tried to figure out where
21 can explain how it was there, that I'm aware of. 1
21 the PCBs ended up that migrated off of the
22 mean, maybe somebody can. 1 can't.

20
THE WITNESS: I'm answering you
20 BY MR. WRIGHT:
21 from the standpoint of what the intent was in 1985, 21
Q We're just going to kind of skip around
22 when that sampling protocol was put together. Had 22 now. Let me show you a memo that was sent to you
23 that information been known and available around
23 by Robert Ivory in January of '81. Do you remember
Page 94
Page 96
1 that table or even thought about, it would have
1 receiving that memo? By the way, this is Exhibit
2 been included in that sampling plan.
2 20 we're talking about.
3 BY MR. WRIGHT:
3 A Well, 1 mean 1 --1 vaguely remember it.
4 Q Was Mr. Taffee still employed in 1985?
4 Q It sampled some material from the HB40
5 A No.
5 sump?
6 Q Was he still in the area? Had he had
6 A Uh-huh.
7 his stroke by then, '85?
7 Q And found a hundred and eight parts per
8 A 1 don't think so.
8 million PCBs in that material, correct?
9 Q So, he was still able to communicate and
9 A Yes.
10 answer questions and give opinions and history and 10 (WHEREUPON, Plaintiffs Exhibit 21 was marked for
11 so forth?

12 MR. COX: Object to the form.

13 THE WITNESS: Probably.
13 Q And then the second page of that--it
14 BY MR. WRIGHT:
14 actually may not -- actually, why don't we make
15 Q Did he never tell you about the sump at
15 that 21, because I'm not sure that they go
16 the landfill that was collecting PCBs and had to be
16 together, because one is dated in January and the
17 pumped out?
17 other one is dated in April, right? Number 20, the
18 A No.
18 typewritten memo, is dated in January and Exhibit
19 Q Had he told you that the sump in the
19 Number 21, the handwritten document, is dated in
20 drainage from the landfill was collecting PCBs, you 20 April of '81. Is that your handwriting, by the
21 could have employed common sense and figured that 21 way?
22 there were probably PCBs coming out of that
22 A No.
23 landfill before the sump was installed, correct?
23 Q Do you know whose it is on Exhibit 21 ?

1 there was any spill or release, that's what it
2 Whoever had that environmental position before

3 Cheever. 1 believe it was Don Huckabee (phonetic), 3 area.
4 at that point in time.
4 Q And the PCBs would have come from, 1
5 Q Can you read that out loud? If you
5 guess, just fugitives from the sewer?
6 wouldn't mind.
6 A Fugitives from the--the separator
7 A Jim Campbell of Chemical Waste
7 device, itself, the big tank in the ground, if you
8 Management informs that the HB sump material was 8 will.
9 greater than a hundred parts per million, PCB
9 Q Right. But the tank was cleaned out in
10 sample has been okayed by their-- let's see --
10 '71 or '72?
11 lab, and that they are ready to accept it.
11 A It was emptied.
12 Roland -- let's see -- to Roland, ask
12 Q Emptied. And then it accumulated
13 him to get with regional purchasing and get
13 material for the next eight or nine years?
14 purchase order or -- something tomorrow.
14 A From the HB40 unit, yes.
15 Q Now, this is some nine years after
15 Q Would that have included water from the
16 manufacture of PCBs was halted in Anniston when 16 sewers?
17 this hundred plus parts per million was found in
17 A No.
18 HB40, sump material, correct?
18 Q Where did this material that ended up in
19 A And that was the previous aroclor sump
19 the sump kit, where did it come from?
20 that the HB40 was routed to and used as a separator 20
MR. COX: PCB material?
21 vessel. And as it was cleaned out, it was analyzed 21
MR. WRIGHT: Well, the material
22 for any PCBs and then disposed of accordingly.
22 that contained PCBS, yeah.
23 Q I'm sorry?
23 THE WITNESS: When you say the

1 A And disposed of accordingly.
1 sewers --
2 Q Okay. Is this the only time that sump
2 BY MR. WRIGHT:
3 was ever cleaned out?
3 Q Right.
4 A It was phased out not long thereafter.
4 A --1 was assuming you were referring to
5 Q Between the end of production of
5 sewers associated with aroclor manufacturing; is
6 aroclors in '81, had it been cleaned out any other
6 that correct? Maybe you need to define what you
7 times?
7 mean better.
8 A 1 don't remember, but it's not likely,
8 Q Yeah, well, 1 probably can't, because 1
9 because any accumulation in it was extremely slow. 9 don't know what 1 mean. Let me just ask it,
10 Q Was the sump cleaned out when the
10 generally. Where did the material that ended up in
11 aroclor plant was shut down?
11 the HB40 sump, where did it come from?
12 A Yes.
12 MR. COX: Object to the form.
13 Q So, this is new material that's

14 accumulated PCBs, even though production has been 14 came from fugitives that were in that tank, itself.
15 stopped?
15 What's referred to as the sump.
16 A Yes. When 1 say "cleaned out," it was
16 BY MR. WRIGHT:
17 not flushed to a - it was - it was empty. And
17 Q Right. Yeah, we're not communicating.
18 any inlet sewers from the aroclor plant were
18 Right now I'm not asking specifically about the
19 basically taken out at that point in time. And so,
19 PCBs, I'm just asking about, what is the stuff that
20 it was -- this particular separator device that was
20 is the sump pit material?
21 then used to take any water from the HB40 area so 21
A From the HB40 plant.
22 it could be used as an oil water separator to
22 Q Is it everywhere? 1 mean, does the
23 separate that. Was a capture device in the event

9 have been directed in that way would have been a 9 A I'm assuming that could be any storage
10 very, very small amount. In other words, any --
10 tank where any spill could have potentially

18 road and up the hill from the plant?
19 our earlier deposition, about the reports that went 19 A No.
20 to ADEM on the monthly reports that gave a daily 20 Q Or is that the westend landfill, 1
21 summary of the PCBs. Do you recall that?
21 guess?
22 A 1 recall seeing it, yes.
22 A That would have been the westend

11 A It's the EPA letter to Robert Jones,
11
12 concerning doing a RCRA facility assessment.
12
13 Q And what's the RCRA facility for?
13
14 A Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, 14
15 RCRA, is the set of laws that are applied to
15
16 landfill-type facilities.
16
17 Q So, that related to the landfill?
17
18 A Well, this was involving a facility
18
19 assessment, analyzing any potential what was called 19
20 SWMU, S-W-M-U, solid waste management units, and 20
21 any other area of concern, basically to address any 21
22 potential site that could have had any past or

MR. COX: Can 1 interject, because otherwise that's wrong, 1 think.
MR. WRIGHT: Okay. MR. COX: Jerry, didn't they identify or attempt to identify some old phosphate landfill and name that as an area of concern, because at the time the westend landfill was still owned by the power company? THE WITNESS: Yeah. But as 1 recollect, it was a phosphate --1 mean, it was owned by the power company, but -MR. COX: 1 thought that was the landfill they thought that was between Clydesdale and that corner of the property, at the corner of Clydesdale and 202, on-site. That's okay. 1 think the actual RFA and then the -THE WITNESS: 1 would have to go to the document and see. MR. COX: -- comments and the RCRA permit, 1 think clarify that. Sorry. MR.

10 were talking about in '81, as well?
11 A -- with their study, yes.
11 A That's the only sump I'm aware of, so,

THE WITNESS: It doesn't tell me

21 A And 1 started to say, on the westside,
21 for this problem. It talks about in early '79,
22 there was a wet-weather spring that was discovered 22 however, plant personnel noticed a discoloration in

1. INTRODUCTION
Well water samples collected at the MAP Anniston Plant were sub mitted to the Dayton Laboratory for priority pollutant screening analyses. The analyses were conducted in accordance with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) screening phase protocol for priority pollutants [1] .
2. SUMMARY
All analyses were conducted according to the procedures developed and recommended by the U.S. EPA [1,2,3]. the organic priority pollutants observed in Anniston plant water samples are shown in Table 1. Although all the organic priority pollutants listed in Table 2 were investigated through either GC/MS or GC/EC screening analyses, only those pollutants observed at or above the screen ing level concentrations are reported. None of the Aroclors or pesticides listed in Table 3 were detected above their screening levels. The analytical results for the priority and nonpriority pollutant metals, as determined by atomic absorption (AA) and inductively coupled (ICP) spectroscopy, are shown in Table 4. Table 5 shows the quality control data for the metals analyses. Table 6 shows the detection limits for the metals concentrations. Table 7 shows the analytical results for the total phenol and cyanide concentrations in the water samples.

3. SAMPLE COLLECTION
samples timsm. collected by Anr.iston Plant personnel and submitted
to the Dayton Laboratory for analyses. However, the sample for
analysis of phenol in Discharge 005 had to be taken from the
metals sample bottle. The container labeled "Arsenic" and
preserved with NaOH to pH >12 was used for the cyanide analyses.

4. PRIORITY POLLUTANT ANALYTICAL PROCEDURES
Analytical procedures developed and recommended by EPA [1,4] were used throughout this project. It is important to realize that the analysis scheme for analyzing for organic priority pollutants is a screening procedure, and is therefore a qualitative, semiquantitative analysis. Some of the organic priority pollutant analytical methods are still under development and require fur ther verification and validation. Therefore, the data presented for organic species serve to identify which of the organic pollut ants were present and to indicate their general concentration ranges. The accuracy of these data may vary by a factor of 2 to 10, depending on the overall composition and concentration of the materials present.
Two of the 129 priority pollutants were not determined in the project: 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) and asbestos. The EPA Environmental Monitoring and Support Laboratory (EMSL) recommends that TCDD be omitted because of its extreme toxicity and the potential health hazard involved in preparing standard solutions in the laboratory from the pure compound [1], and therefore, the compound is not included as part of our routine screening procedures. There is presently no EPA-approved method for the determination of asbestos fibers in wastewater.
The analytical procedure used [1] divides the 129 priority pollut ants into six basic categories: volatile organics, extractable organics, metals, cyanide, total phenol and asbestos. The follow ing sections outline the analytical procedures and the EPAapproved Dayton Laboratory's modifications for analyzing each group of priority pollutants.
SM 08L6 73
HARTOLDMON0035068
4.1 Extractable Organics
The 129 priority pollutants contain 81 solvent-extractable organic compounds that can be separated by gas chromatographic methods. Extractable organics are divided into three groups for analysis: base/neutral organics, acid organics (phenols), pesticides and Aroclors. Compounds classified as extractable organics are listed by these groups in Table 2.
The analytical procedure for extractable organics is described in Reference 1. Figure 1 depicts the sample processing scheme for the base/neutral and acid fractions. A 1-liter aliguot of the extractable organics was made alkaline (pH >11) with sodium hydroxide, and the organic base/neutral compounds extracted with methylene chloride.

10 OSM 081674
HARTOLDMON0035069
The residual aqueous phase was acidified (pH <2) with hydro chloric acid, and the organic acids were then extracted with methylene chloride.
The methylene chloride extracts, one containing the base/neutral organics and the other the acidic organics, were dried on columns of anhydrous sodium sulfate. These dried extracts were concen trated to 1.0 mL in Kuderna-Danish (X-D) evaporative concentrators. The concentrates were sealed in septum-capped vials and stored at 4C until analysis. Gas chromatographic/mass spectroraetrie (GC/MS) analysis was conducted using SF-2250-DB and SP-1240-DA GC columns for the base/neutral and acid extracts, respectively. Each sample was spiked with deuterated anthracene (an internal standard) immediately prior to analysis at the GC/MS.
The sample processing scheme used for pesticides and Aroclors is* shown in Figure 2. A 1-liter aliquot of the original extractable organics sample was adjusted to a pH of 6.5 to 7.5 using either 50% NaOH or concentrated HC1, and the pesticides and Aroclors were extracted into a 15% methylene chloride/hexane solution. The organic phase was separated and the sample cleaned up by acetonitrile partition. Following the cleanup procedure, the samples were screened by gas chromatography on SP-2250/SP-2401 and 3% QV-101 columns, utilizing an electron capture detector.
4.2 Volatile Organics
Table 2
v* those priority pollutants classified as volatile
organics.^^^je-recommended method for volatile organic analysis
was designed by EPA for determining those chemical species which are amenable to the Bellar purge and trap method [1,4]. Hermetically sealed 40 mL glass vials collected from each of the sampling points were composited in the laboratory for one analysis of each sampling point.

HARTOLDMON0035070
Figure 2. Sample processing scheme for pesticides and Aroclor analysis.
Two laboratory composite solutions were prepared, one for analysis and one as a backup sample. Figure 3 is a simplified diagram of the analytical scheme used for volatile organics analysis. An internal standard, 1,4-dichlorobutane, was added to 5 mL of the composited sample, and this spiked sample was sparged with helium onto a Tenax-GC silica-packed sample tube.
Analyses were completed using a Hewlett-Packard 5981 GC-mass spectrofjjgtometer with a S937 data system. Sample tubes were
heated
1S0#C over a 1-minute period and held at that temper
ature fio#*'#' minutes to desorb the compounds onto a Carbowax 1500
column held at -4*C. For compounds with boiling points below room temperature, cryogenic trapping at -40#C (liquid nitrogen cooling) generally provides better reproducibility of retention
time than does the suggested protocol temperature of 30C. After
desorption, the GC column temperature was raised at 8*C/minute to
OSM 08L676
HARTOLDMON0035071
Figure 3. Analytical scheme for volatile organic analysis.
Qualitative identification of a compound was made using the three criteria listed in the protocol Cl]: 1) the characteristic ions must be found to maximize in the same spectrum, 2) retention time must coincide with known retention times, and 3) ratios of the three characteristic masses must stand in the proper known propor tions. Quantification of volatile organics was made using response ratios to the 1,4-dichlorobutane standard.
4.3
In addition to extractable and volatile organics, the 129 prior ity pollutants include 13 metals which are to be analyzed for under the protocol. Four metals (arsenic, mercury, selenium, and thallium) are analyzed by atomic absorption (AA) spectroscopy. All other metals were determined by an inductively coupled plasma (ICP) excitation technique.

4.4 Total Cyanide
Total cyanide was determined according to the conventional wet chemistry technique described in Reference 3. Spiked samples and independent standards were included with the plant samples for quality assurance.
4.5 Total Phenol
In addition to specific phenolic compounds and phenol measured by GC/MS, total phenol was also measured by typical wet chemistry techniques [1-3], Independent phenol standards were also analyzed for quality assurance.

1. INTRODUCTION
A water sample collected at the MAP Anniston Plant was submitted to the Dayton Laboratory for priority pollutant screening anaivses. The analyses were conducted in accordance with the U.S. Environ mental Protection Agency's (SPA) screening phase protocol for priority pollutants [1].
2. SUMMARY
All analyses were conducted according to procedures developed and recommended by the U.S. EPA [1, 2, 3]. The organic priority pollutants found m the Anniston Plant water sample are shown m Table 1. Although all the organic priority pollutants listed m Table 2 were investigated through GC/.MS screening analysis, only those pollutants observed at or above the screening level concen trations are reported. None of the extractable organic pollutants or the Aroclors and pesticides listed m Table 3 were detected above their screening level. The analytical results for the priority and non-priority pollutant metals, as determined by atomic absorption (AA) and inductively coupled argon plasma (ICAP) spectroscopy, are shown in Table, 4. Table 5 shows the detection limits for the metal concentrations. Tables 6 shows the quality control data for the metals analyses. Table 7 shows the analytical results for the total phenol and cyanide concentrations m the water sample.
3. SAMPLE COLLECTION
Samples were collected by Anniston Plant personnel. Samples were received at the MRC Dayton Laboratory in the designated EPAaporoved sampling containers.

4. PRIORITY POLLUTANT ANALYTICAL PROCEDURES
Analytical procedures developed and recommended by ?a [1] were used throughout this project. It is important to realize that the analysis scheme for analyzing for organic priority pollutants is a screening procedure, and is therefore a qualitative, semiquantitative analysis. Some of the organic priority pollutant analytical methods are still under development and require further verification and validation. Therefore, the data presented for organic species serve to identify which of the organic pollutants were present and to indicate their general concentration ranges. The accuracy of these data may vary by a factor of 2 to 10, depending on the overall composition and concentration of the materials present.
Two of the 129 priority pollutants were not determined in the project: 2,3,7, 8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxm (TCDD) and asbestos. The EPA Environmental Monitoring and Support Laboratory (EMSL) recommends that TCDD be omitted because of its extreme toxicity and the potential health hazard involved in preparing standard solutions in the laboratory from the pure compound [1], and therefore, the compound is not included as part of our routine screening procedures. There is presently no EPA-approved method for the determination of asbestos fibers in wastewater.
The analytical procedure used [11 divides the 129 priority pollut ants into six basic categories: volatile organics, extractable organics, metals, cyanide, total phenol, and asbestos. The following sections outline the analytical procedures and the EPAapproved Dayton Laboratory's modifications for analyzing each group of priority pollutants and selected non--priority pollu-a..

4.1 Extractable Organics
The 129 priority pollutants contain 81 solvent-extractable organic compounds that can be separated by gas chromatographic methods. Extractable organics are divided into three groups for analysis: base/neutral organics, acid organics (phenols), pesticides and Aroclors. Compounds classified as extractable organics are listed by these groups in Table 2.
The analytical procedure for extractable organics is described m Reference 1. Figure 1 depicts the sample processing scheme for the base/neutral and acid fractions. A 1-liter aliquot of the extractable organics was made alkaline (pH >11) with sodium hydroxide, and the organic base/neutral compounds extracted with methylene chloride.

HARTOLDMON0035083
The residual aqueous phase was acidified (pH <2) with hydrochloric acid, and the organic acids were then extracted with methviene chloride.
The methylene chloride extracts, one containing the base/neutral organics and the other the acidic organics, were dried on columns of anhydrous sodium sulfate. These dried extracts were concen trated to 1.0 mL in Kuderna-Danish (K-D) evaporative concentrators. The concentrates were sealed in septum-capped vials and stored at 4C until analysis. Gas chromatographic/mass spectrometric (GC/MS) analysis was conducted using SP-2250-DB and SP-1240-DA GC columns for the base/neutral and acid extracts, respectively. Each sample was spiked with deuterated anthracene (an internal standard) immediately prior to analysis at the GC/MS.
The sample processing scheme used for pesticides and Aroclors is shown in Figure 2. A 1-liter aliquot of the original extractable organics sample was adjusted to a pH of 6.5 to 7.5 using either 50% NaOH or concentrated HC1, and the pesticides and Aroclors were extracted into a 15% methylene chloride/hexane solution. The organic phase was separated and the sample cleaned u? by acetonitrile partition. Following the cleanup procedure, tne samples were screened by gas chromatography on SP-2250/SP-2401 and 3% OV 101 columns, utilizing an electron capture detector.
4.2 Volatile Organics
Table 2 lists those priority pollutants classified as volatile organics. The recommended method for volatile organic analysis was designed by EPA for determining those chemical species which are amenable to the Beliar purge ar.d trap method [1] . Hermetically sealed 40 ml glass vials collected from each c: the sampling points were composited m the laboratory for cr.e analysis of each sampling point. Two laboratory composite

solutions were prepared, one for analysis and one as a backup sample. Figure 3 is a simplified diagram of the analytical scheme used for volatile organics analysis. An internal standard, 1,4-dichlorobutane, was added to 5 mL of the composited sample, and this spiked sample was sparged with helium onto a Ter.ax-GC silica-packed sample tube. Analyses were completed using a Hewlett-Packard 5981 GC-mass spectrophotometer with a 5937 data system. Sample tubes were heated to 180aC over a 1-minute period and held at that temper ature for 4 minutes to desorb the compounds onto a Carbowax 1500 column held at -40#C. For compounds with boiling points below room temperature, cryogenic trapping at -40aC (liquid nitrogen cooling) generally provides better reproducibility of retention time than does the suggested protocol temperature of 30C. After desorption, the GC column temperature was raised at 8aC/minute to 170aC.

Figure 3. Analytical scheme for volatile organics analysis.
Qualitative identification of a compound was made using the three
criteria listed in the protocol [1]: 1) the characteristic ions
must be found to maximize in the same spectrum, 2) .retention time
must coincide with known retention times, and 3] ratios of tne
three characteristic masses must stand m the proper known procor-
tions. Quantification of volatile organics was made using response
ratios to the 1,4-dichlorobutane standard.
4.3 Metals
In addition to extractable and volatile organics, the 129 priority pollutants include 13 metals which are to be analyzed for under the protocol. Four metals (arsenic, mercury, selenium, and thallium) are analyzed by atomic absorption (AA) spectroscopy. All other metals would be determined by an inductively coupled argon plasma (ICAP) excitation technique.

4.4 Total Cvam.de Total cyanide was determined according to the conventional wet chemistry technique described m Reference 3. Spiked samples and independent standards were included with the plant samples for quality assurance. 4.5 Total Phenol In addition to specific phenolic compounds and phenol measured by GC/MS, total phenol was also measured by typical wet chemistry techniques [1-3]. Independent phenol standards were also analyzed for quality assurance.

INTRODUCTION
One water and one biological sludge sample were received from An niston for the analysis of 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenao-p-dioxin (TCDD), The samples were assigned MRC Log Number 1-83-09-13-05.
SAMPLE PREPARATION
The water samples were prepared by extracting one liter of water with three 60mL portions of methylene chloride (CH2C12). This included rinsing the bottle with CH2C12 to ensure complete recovery of any TCDD which may have adhered to the glass. The CH2C12 ex tract was concentrated and exchanged to hexane and then chromato graphed through a multiple stage column consisting of silica, sil ica plus concentrated sulfuric acid and silica plus potassium hy droxide. The eluant from this column passed directly onto a Woelm B alumina column which strongly retains The TCDD. This, alumina column is then eluted with 2% CH2Cl2/hexane to remove PCBs and this fraction is discarded. The column is then eluted with 50% CH2Cl2/hexane to strip off the TCDD and the solvent is concentrated to 10 (jL and submitted for GC/MS analysis.
The sludge samples were prepared in a somewhat similar manner. Ten grams of sludge was extracted with a mixture of 15mL of meth anol and 150L of hexane. The extract was decanted from the sludge and then partitioned against organic free water and then concentrated sulfuric acid to remove impurities, This cleaned-up hexane was then run through a similar column arrangement as the water and submitted for GC/MS analysis.
SAMPLE ANALYSES
The GC/MS analyses were carried out on a Hewlett Packard 5985 B GC/MS system using a 60m SP-2330 capillary column for the separa tion of the 2,3,7,8-TCDD from other interferents. The mass spec trometer was operated in the selected ion monitoring mode follow ing ions characteristic of 2,3,7,8-TCDD and the isotopically la beled TCDDs which were used as surrogates for quantitation.
RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
The result* of the analyses are shown in Tables 1 and 2. No TCDD was found in the water or the sludge at the method detection lim its. Quality control information is also provided in these tables. Note that the results for the water sample are listed as part per trillion (ppt) or one part in 10*2. The results for the sludge are parts per billion (ppb) or one part in 10ft.

RCFIH EMCC : MRC Job #408.1010
TO : J. Brown 1060 Anniston
Three fluid samples were analyzed for their PCB content by MRC Method MRC-08-GC-RO. The samples were screened for PCB Aroclors 1242, 1254, and 1260. The sample chromato grams were compared to standards of these Aroclors, for identification and quantitation, run under similar condi tions. The method has a lower detection limit of 1 yg/mL (ppm). Results of these analyses are listed in the following table.

The Hazardous and solid Haste Amendments (KSHA) of 1984 broaden EPA's authority under RCRA to require corrective action for releases of hazardous and solid wastes containing hazardous constituents at facilities that manage hazardous wastes. The corrective action authority extends to all Solid Haste Management Units (SHMUs) at the facility. The first phase of the corrective action program as established by EPA is performance of a RCRA Facility Assessment (RFA). The steps in the RFA process include
a preliminary review of available file information, a visual site
inspection (VSI) of the facility, and if necessary, a sampling visit (SV). a preliminary review of file materials has been performed for this facility, and it has been determined that a VSI is necessary. The purpose of the VSI is:
1. To collect all available, relevant information on solid waste management practices that have been used on the site;
2. To gain first-hand information as to the
identification, location, construction, configuration, function served, method of operation, and condition of each SWMU;
QSU 061584
HARTOLDMON0035207
3. To-confirm, by visual inspection, information collected during the review of file asterials;
4. To survey the site for additional SWMUs and other Areas of Concern (AOCs) not identified in the review of the file materials;
5. To identify potential sample points for possible future sampling activities;
6. To review the site information and collect additional information to address the information needs identified during the PR; and
7. To take photographs of all SWMUs and other AOCs.

EPA's contractor will send a two-member field team to perform the
visual Site Inspection. A two-day Inspection is anticipated;
however, the field team is prepared to extend the VSI through
April 19, 1991, if necessary. The team will inspect all past and
current solid waste and hazardous waste handling, storage,
treatment, and disposal areas on site, outdoor and indoor waste
generation, collection, and accumulation areas will be inspected
as necessary to acquire a complete understanding of waste
streams, waste flows, and waste handling procedures. The team
also will identify, inspect, and document potential pathways for
release of hazardous constituents into the environment. Facility
staff will possibly be interviewed to develop a better
understanding of past and current waste management practices. At
this time, the facility may present updated environmental
monitoring or sampling data that may not be in the current EPA or
State files. Data nay include any soil characterization,
hydrogeologic data, air quality data, or any other supporting
studies.
.
The overall rationale of this inspection is to enable the teas to trace the waste flow through the entire facility from the points
of generation to ultimate disposal. The following schedule has been prepared based on the preliminary file review, and is intended as an outline for a thorough and efficient inspection of
all SWMUs and AOCs on the site. Some adjustments to the proposed agenda may be necessary to accommodate facility staff, location of units, operational constraints, or unforeseen conditions. This proposed schedule will be reviewed during the introductory meeting and adjusted, if necessary, at that time. The VSI field teas will sake every reasonable effort to conform to the facility's normal hours of operation.

RE: Monitoring Wells for Monsanto, Anniston
PLAINTIFF'S
as.EXHIBIT
1 met with Mr. Jerry Brown of Monsanto and Mr. Paul Moser of the Alabama Geologic Survey on January 10, 1980 to discuss implacement of monitoring wells for Monsanto's disposal site. After a visit to the site, Mr. Moser recommended that the wells be implaced as per the attached map (1-upgradient, 5-downgradient).
I sketched the proposed construction of the monitoring wells, which is also attached. I also obtained a copy of a soil study made at the disposal site in 1973 (attached). I believe that the sites chosen for the monitoring wells are well located and should give a good indication of any ground water contamination.
While inspecting the disposal site, I noticed that the dam which surrounds the parathion waste pit has broken at the lower extremity. Mr. Brown said that this will be corrected when drier, weather permits. I also discovered an underground spring which surfaces from a hill west of the catch basins and north of the biological solids disposal area (downgradient from the bio solids area). The water was filled with a substantial amount of brown algae. This may be an indication of phosphate contamination from the biological solids area. All drainage from the area empties into Snow Creek.

Our current solids problems in waste treatment are of
major concern to me at the moment. I feel that a somewhat fresh approach must be taken to analyzing this problem. I know that you have considerable back ground in this area and also have developed natural biases. Please try to put aside those biases and look at our existing data to see if there are clues to pre dict when we are headed for upsets.
Our approach must change from one of telling people that they have a problem to that of telling them, 1) they are headed for a problem and what is causing this direction, and 2) how, once the problem materializes, it can be readily corrected.
Please document to me your plans in developing a new
approach to solids problems.
